From a contact who works in the AFL, not to say that gives it any more credibility then hearing it from a drunk at the pub...

As I said I’m not saying it’s true, if it was I highly doubt he would have been just put in our leadership but I’m not in the know.

Again, I was just seeing if others had heard it and if it had any truth to it.... is a public forum about the saints not the appropriate place to do that...

No reflection on you at all mate but your contact at the AFL must be some ripping type to believe that rumour could even be half true let alone telling everyone one he knows, i fail to see how a hammy has anything to do with a supposed snorting problem , anyway lets just hope his hammy isn't too bad

It seems like non-st Kilda supporters seem to take extra pride in pushing any negativity about us!

Here’s to him getting his hammy right and a strong 2019

Bruce coming back in could be massive for our competitiveness in the forward line. Irrespective of his form leading up to injuries last year, we missed him dearly as he represents a constant and clear target up front - too often our inside 50s lacked direction and banked on Membrey being able to outmark two opponents or Paddy/Marshal drawing a free kick. Bruce is that guy who will throw himself at any contest and ensure he takes out a couple opponents with him and let Gresh/Lonie/Parker/Young do the work on the ground.

Also quietly very excited about Steele, the conditions seem to be perfect for a breakout

His form line wasn't as bad as people have made out. He kicked 3 or 4 goals in his first game back off zero preseason, played well but didn't score in the next 2 and was taken out of the side for a rest and found to have stress fractures in his back. He returned form injury and broke his leg. Hardly a poor form line.

This is a given!
I'm expecting him to kick at least 4 or 5 of these and about 7 in total!
Would be a handy debut! May even see him keep his place in the team the following week!
Though if our match committee of last season turns up, it's no sure thing! :smirk:

You gotta fit Armo back in the team somehow! Now that he's digested all the Dim Sims!
Bound to make him Strong in the contest! :moustache:

But it may come down to who whips up a frenzy more in the calendar photo industry
And we all know the Pink Panthers debut there, was truly spectacular and arousing!

Bruce will nickname Paaaaaaaarker as the Erotic Lizard after first glance! :kissingheart:

Very easy to dirty a guys name - usually I don't write about comments like these , but people should really think before they write crap like this.
People must realize the team drug test and the governing body drug test , so if anybody uses you will get caught.

Yes indeed!
Depending on who you are and who you play for of course! ;)


I gotta stop being so deliciously cynical don't i?

Yes you do Bruce! :oops:
 
I overheard somewhere that Longer has injured himself? Can anyone confirm? I was half day dreaming when I overheard it, so can’t be sure.. I haven’t been down for a few days so couldn’t tell if he’s been training..

Billy Longer signs a new one-year deal to remain at St Kilda in 2019.
"I'm really looking forward to another year with the Saints," Longer said.
"It's already been a great off-season for me, as I've been able to address a few lingering injuries. Now I feel better than I have in a long time and I'm just excited to get on the track with the boys and get to work."

Heard he hasn't been in the game sim , training though - would like to know if he will be right to go

This was mid last week I heard about it.. Saying unfortunately Billy is injured again, so Marshall will get a chance in the ruck. But I could have been half asleep ( drunk ) and he was talking about last year.. Did sound like he was saying it happened only last week.. it was a club employee.. if he is injured, will test out tall stocks early up..

Would be a big loss. I would have thought Luey would get first crack at it though.

As was said on here by a poster , in the intra club sim Pierce had the upper hand of Marshall - however I would expect Marshall to partner him in the ruck , the thing is are they willing to play a 2nd ruck - I would because Marshall could play a key position as well if needed.

A big plus for us this year will be Bruce , he was sorely missed last year and if he is primed this year we will be in a better place than last year added with the guys who are killing it in preseason - Steele , Sinclair , Acres , Gresham , Billings
and with proven performers Brown , Roberton and Hannebery who knows how far we go.

You’re basically saying no paddy then....I still think he’ll play. Not sure he should but he will. Losing longer a bit more serious with paddy in there I reckon unless pierce has improved his tank
